Overview
- On July 22 the coaster halted just after climbing its 160-foot vertical tilt tower, triggering an automatic safety shutdown before the signature tilt element.
- Riders were escorted down a narrow emergency staircase along the steep incline and no injuries were reported.
- This incident marked the fourth safety-system intervention since the ride’s June 28 debut, following stoppages on opening day, July 2 and July 19.
- Park officials state the built-in sensors performed as designed by preventing a potentially riskier failure and that engineers are now reviewing performance data.
- Manufactured by Vekoma, Siren’s Curse is North America’s first tilt coaster featuring 2,966 feet of track, speeds up to 58 mph and two zero-gravity barrel rolls.
